Roll Cage Installation Options

Anyone with a Cusco Full Roll Cage or similar - can we see some detailed photos of the cage as installed and get some comments on how well it fits and quality of manufacture. As more people enter competition with their cars details of available options will be very helpful. Thanks.

I am about to install a Cusco Cage in my Evo 9 - no details yet.

See below a Safety Devices Cage installed in my old Evo 6. It was a great cage but very hard to install.

To my knowledge the cusco cages will not pass NHRA specs, is this true?

I dont think the Cusco rollcage really is considered a safety device since the whole thing bolts together

I would definitely check with the sanctioning bodies of any events you plan to run and learn the requirements they have for competition cars. If your pre-fabbed cage doesn't meet the tubing type or thickness requirements for one of those sanctioning bodies you risk needing to have the cage rebuild a second time - spendy.
